Da 90 Year Old Lathe

**cheesy** · 05-14-2024, 07:57 PM

I have been medically cleared and can return to doing stupid sh!t. Except for skating. They want me to hold off a while longer. I won't argue. Yet.
So, I rode the Ol' Phart Lefsa Special for one lap around the subdivision, which equals about 3.5 miles. Since I haven't done any riding since October, it was a workout.

Back to the lathe. I'm heading up to N. Wisconsin soon to attend an estate auction of one of my Dads' friends who passed a couple of months ago. The guy had buildings full of old cars, bikes, tractors, parts, machine tools, and farm stuff. I'm going to see if I can score a 6" 3 jaw chuck with 1 1/2-8 threading and a face plate with dogs. Dad has his eye on a 1948-ish Jeep CJ2a.
